| Best for | Replacing a discontinued or unavailable yarn | Understanding what a tech pack must control before using a template or releasing work | Introducing a child, family, classroom, or first-time learner to the basic idea of a loom through one short guided activity |
| Know before using | A suggested match is a data-based shortlist, not proof that the yarn suits the pattern or maker. Yarn records can be incomplete or wrong, prices and availability vary by market, and the site uses affiliate links. Confirm the required gauge, total length, fibre behavior, construction, care, color, dye lot, accessibility, and seller terms, then make and assess a representative swatch before committing. | An orientation rather than a completed product record; it does not supply a universal format, licensed standard content, measurements, tolerances, construction settings, labels, approvals, compliance conclusion, or product-release authority. | This is a short, child-oriented introduction, not a complete weaving course, equipment manual, four-shaft or backstrap-loom guide, cultural-practice record, or safety procedure. It does not establish yarn selection, sett, tension, finishing, accessibility, skill, or product quality. The page provides little written instruction, and caption or transcript quality was not confirmed; use appropriate supervision and materials. |

| What the source establishes | YarnSub's official FAQ says its matching software compares gauge, texture, yarn weight and density, fibre content, and fibre qualities such as drape and softness. Discontinued yarns remain searchable as starting points but are excluded from suggested replacements, and each yarn page provides a route to report source-data problems. | The guide cites current ISO sources for documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam boundaries plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; it explicitly separates those authorities from product-specific technical and market decisions. | Mexico's Cultura en la Distancia portal publishes the Tutorial | Tejido activity, attributes the information to the Puebla Secretariat of Culture, and describes building a loom to learn how thread becomes cloth. The checked page returned HTTP 200 and linked to a working Museo Amparo video record titled Tutorial: Tejido. |
